Comment:

I agree with the others, she doesn't post any grades all semester so you don't really know and that's frustrating. But I did enjoy the class, as long as you do the weekly assignments and essays you should be good. It definitely is a lot of reading and writing, but it's an english class. I loved the novel she assigned, All The Light We Cannot See.

Comment:

I never knew my grade the entire semester. She doesn't enter anything in Canvas. Its so much reading and writing. Takes weeks to reply to emails. Not a good class if you're looking for an easy A. You might get a C if you try really hard or an A if you're only taking this class and not any others. Not recommended.

Comment:

Do NOT take this professor. I missed ONE assignment and got a D. Its crazy amounts of reading and writing every week. I took this as an elective! I have taken many English classes and always got A's. I am still in disbelief over her grading criteria.

Weekly readings and discussions via Canvas. Sometimes up to 3 discussion posts required (minimum of 250-500 words sometimes) and 3 minimum responses to peers. Three major essays that are somewhat confusing. A lot of reading!

Attendance is graded and your entire grade is based one 3 essays. she does use the book and they are discussed in class however you can just use the one in the library. she assigns group work most of the time and there never is any homework besides the online discussions and the essays.

Never updates grades... never knew my grade for the semester not one assignment was input on canvas. I feel like I would've done better in that class if I knew my grade

Comment:

Prof Taylor is THE BEST. She's hilarious. 2 papers and 1 final paper. Canvas discussion posts and 3 replies to classmates. Very easy, but you learn a lot. Textbook lightly used, just use at the library if you can. Buy Illusions - it is cheap. Takes attendance.

Comment:

Discussion and Feedbacks are the only homework you MUST do, or else it can really bring your grade down. Few essay requirements, but no more than 2. The only downfall is her lack of communication through email, sent her email asking about my grade never ever got a response even until the end of semester. So just do the work and you'll pass.

Comment:

if you're an English major this class should be pretty simple. A response is due each week (300 words), there are 4 books I think (2 novels, 1 poetry, 1 short story) and we had to write a 1200 word essay for each. She has good taste in books except for "Casual Vacancy" by J K Rowling, that book pissed me off and it was dumb long.

The easiest class you will ever have! I was packing on six classes during spring semester and thought I was going to collapse. Luckily, this class was the best to fall back on (still kept up, obviously). 3 main essays, easy as can be. Only 3/4 pages. TAKE HER IF YOU GET THE CHANCE! She makes the class enjoyable. Attendance is a part of your grade!!

This online class is for someone who likes to write rather than take tests. Her whole class is based on discussion posts and 3 papers. Both of which aren't hard for her class... although, she does require a certain number of words for everything. Not a hard class though!

Comment:

The class consists of going through eras in art history and evaluating works of art with a group. You don't have to know what you are talking about in the discussion because there are some who get away with rambling nonsense. There is an online element that basically pats others on the back for talking about art. Caring professor that loves art.

Wow! I had never had to review so many essay's for one class. Then again it was a WPE prep class. I emailed her a couple times, and she answered weeks (three to be exact) later. Easy A, expect to be in groups review everyone's paper which is ok just really time consuming and ANNOYING. She's okay, it was based on personal views.

Just post in weekly discussions and try on the 3 essays and you will get an A. She is an awesome professor and a generous grader. She will give you feedback on your essays which help you become a better writer. Im not very good at writing but two hours of work a week got me an A. Don't even know what she looks like, but NANCY FOR PRESIDENT

She is amazing! Wonderful professor. As a graduating senior, she was one of the best professors I have taken at CSUN. Clear, responds quickly, and as long as you do your work you will pass with a good grade!

This is my third time taking her and she is truly an amazing professor. Her goal is for us to become better writers and one way to do that is through reading. Her selection is good and the assignments are interesting. On top of that, she is the most organized online professor! If you haven't taken her yet, you are truly missing out.

Great professor who really tried to engage students into deeper class discussions. Class was super chill, you need the book in class, or you could share with your group. No tests, just essays.
